Grant's the big 30! And Rhett - 7 months!

I planned a surprise party for Grant's birthday (Thank you to everyone who came - it was a blast!). He had been begging for a 'surprise' party for his 30th birthday since the day her turned 29... How are you supposed to plan one when you are asked every day if I am going to throw one! I have to admit that there were days that I came very close to just yelling at him that his surprise party would be on his birthday at the church during our normal small group time. But, thankfully I didn't give in!

Grant is a car guy - he always knows everyones cars and recognizes them while we are out and about - so as we were driving up to the building Grant goes "What is my sister doing in town?!" Ha - so he knew what was going on before he walked in the doors, but at least he didn't know before we got to the parking lot!

Had a lot of fun with friends and family - and Grant finally got the surprise party he had been begging for! Here are some pictures of him growing up for the fun of it :)

He's a charmer - I know :)

So, Rhett is also 7 months!

Rhett turned 7 months on Grant's birthday - October 8

Lets see - He is eating just about everything now, just no meats! We tend to give him very small pieces of things that we are eating and so far he loves everything - maybe he won't be as picky as his father!

New things he's doing: He can pick up those little puffs and get them into his mouth on his own - such a lifesaver sometimes! Still rolling around like crazy, always wants to be sitting up or standing. He now is pretty steady if we stand him up so that he can hold onto something - he can stand and play on this little table that we got for him and he LOVES it! Still not even attempting to crawl - he never wants to be laying down anymore so I'm pretty convinced that he might end up going right to standing!

He has made a game out of tilting his head to one side or the other...he will just stare at you with his head cocked to the side and smiling until you do the same thing as well!

I feel like he gets more and more fun everyday - Love his smiles, squeaks and babbles.

Here are some pictures that I took of him yesterday - we were battling a runny nose and bedtime :)
